Catherine Cosmetics Company Sales Department meeting Report
March 29, 20--

We reviewed the sales figures for the past quarter. We are currently experiencing a significant drop in sales in our hair care products. This has been going on since the beginning of the year when we introduced the improved version of our top-selling hair care line, Catherine's Curls. Our advertising has not been successful in convincing more consumers to buy these products. We know there is a market for products such as these manufactured with 100% natural ingredients and no testing on animals. In fact, our competitors are doing quite well in this area and have been for a number of years. We know from our research that the popularity of all-natural cosmetic products is more than just a passing fad, and this is why we decided to branch out into this area. We have carefully compared our products to those of our three largest competitors. We have looked at product ingredients, packaging, target consumers, pricing, and sales strategies. Our product is similar, or even better, in all ways but one. Our packaging is significantly less eye-catching than that of our competitors, and it does not convey the important aspects of the products to the consumer, that is, that these products are entirely made with natural ingredients. Therefore, in order to attract more customers, we recommend employing a new designer to create better packaging for the Catherine's Curls line of products.

Re: Annual charitable contributions

Seasons greetings to everyone in our Premiere Life family! We wish you the very best!
It is at this time of the year that we make a special effort to think of those who are less fortunate. We have made a tradition at Premiere Life of choosing one charity each year to make a charitable donation to as an organization, and this year, we have chosen WorldSight.
For those of you unfamiliar with the good work this organization is doing, WorldSight provides medical assistance and food aid to people who are experiencing crises in areas of the world ravaged by famine and war. They are a non-governmental, non-profit organization, and they rely entirely on private charity.
We were very pleased with your generosity last year in response to our pledge to donate to the United Way. We had promised them $25,000, but as a result of your generosity, we were able to give $40,000 - and no doubt made a difference in the lives of many, many people. This year, we're hoping to get even more staff members involved and raise even more for WorldSight.
Alison McGee, the Human Resource manager, will be organizing the campaign this year. She will be passing out a form which you can use to pledge a certain amount of your January pay deposit, and we will pool all of your contributions and make one donation to WorldSight on behalf of all of you. If you would like to be involved, please fill out and return the signed form to her before you leave for your holidays on December 20th.
Let's all give this holiday season and make a difference in the lives of those who are not as privileged as we all are.

Re: Forgot the form!

Hi, Alison! It's Jay from Accounting. I'm really sorry to bother you over the holidays, but I wanted to find out if there was any way I could get my contribution form to you. I had it all filled out on Thursday, but I guess I was in a big hurry to go on Friday and I totally forgot to drop it off with you. The ridiculous thing is that I had it in my hand. Sorry about that. I'm really interested in contributing, though. And if there's anyway I could get this to you, please let me know. Perhaps I could courier it to you. As far as I know, they're usually open right up until the 23rd for all those people who forgot to mail their Christmas presents! Let me know. I'll look forward to your e-mail.

Take care,
Jay Allen
